“I am the country's Home Minister, can't I talk to people? How am I an outsider?” he said.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday sought to punch a hole in West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's oft-repeated insider-outsider narative, alleging that her "vote bank of illegal immigrants", on whose support she wants to rule the State, were the actual outsiders. Mr. Shah also accused Ms. Banerjee of having no other agenda apart from hurling abuses at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and him. "She dedicates 10 minutes of her speech in every election rally to abusing the PM and myself... I am the country's Home Minister, can't I talk to people? How am I an outsider?" he said at a public meeting in Harirampur constituency in Dakshin Dinajpur district, which goes to polls in the seventh phase on April 26.More Related News
